According to a study, electric cars from German manufacturers are more popular with consumers than Chinese models. In a newly presented attractiveness index for electric cars, the brands VW, Audi and Mercedes-Benz came in the top three. The Chinese import brands MG, BYD and GWM, on the other hand, performed the worst despite lower average prices. For the survey, the consulting company Bearing Point and the Handelsblatt Research Institute surveyed more than 2,000 people in Germany. They named price as the most important criterion at 62 percent, but potential customers wanted to pay almost equal attention to range, electricity costs and the quality of the brand. Taking all relevant criteria into account, Volkswagen offers the best overall package.
Mercedes-Benz and BMW are seen as particularly innovative, with BMW coming in seventh place behind Tesla, Porsche and Hyundai. Opel and Renault follow with comparatively low average prices, ahead of the suppliers from China. These achieve low approval ratings, especially when it comes to trust in quality. The electric pioneer Tesla is also weak here.
